Look, I happen to buy into the concept that guns don’t kill people, people do.
With that said, I don’t think that the US government providing weapons to the drug cartels added to the level of violence one iota. In fact, if the government wanted to use guns as a means to track and capture, or murder with drones, the Mexican bad guys, I’m all for it!
Predictably, my only complaint with the program is that the government screwed up the operation.
Sell the guns. Only implant GPS chips so that you can track the drone missile targets bad guys.
In related news, I fear the wheels are coming off the Obama Administration:
For the first time, documents appear to show Attorney General Eric Holder was made aware of the Operation Fast and Furious earlier than he claimed — up to 9 nine months earlier.
The documents seem to contradict what Holder told a House Judiciary Committee on May 3, when he said he could not recall the exact date, but he’d “probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.”
It’s over folks. The “Superbowl is now the League Championship game” as they say.
Obama’s toast.
